    Isaiah 53 and Human Sin

    King David disagrees. Psalms 19:7 and 119:92-93 The Torah of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. If your Torah had not been my delight, I should have perished in my affliction. I will never forget your precepts; for with them you...

    Isaiah 53 and Human Sin

    Romans don't change the Law, it shows, you don't live by it. and if you do you will die. not any 10, listen and learn, Micah 6:8 "He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" this is...

    Everyone who loves is born of God

    And you are quite sure you don't neglect truth?

    Everyone who loves is born of God

    Of course hate and racism is unloving, but I think neglecting truth is, also. “Forgotten is the first duty of love: to speak the truth (Ephesians 4:15). Real love does not flatter or soothe when correction is needed but points out the error which is blinding and harming the loved one. Christ...

    Religious and Political Arrogance and Conceit

    Religious and Political Arrogance and Conceit It is amazing how many people have the truth! Also how many trying to convince everyone else that they are wrong. Religious people have a tendency to believe that they are of the elect, and those who disagree with them, well, are not, and are...

    Meditations of the day

    "The purpose is to grow and flow. But speaking the truth in love [in all things—both our speech and our lives expressing His truth], let us grow up in all things into Him [following His example] who is the Head—Christ. (Ephesians 4:15) His truth was the awareness of being one with the Father...

    Who is the Baha’i Jesus and how does He differ from the Christian Jesus?

    The Eternal Covenant of God is a central concept of the Baha'í Faith. So Jesus inaugurating a New Covenant is of central importance. The first verse of the Kitab-i-Aqdas reads: THE first duty prescribed by God for His servants is the recognition of Him Who is the Dayspring of His Revelation and...

    A dialogue about Prophecy & doctrines between the WTS/JW & Seventh-day Adventist

    Your family in Hell whilst you're in Heaven?

    I can think of other reasons. How about ... 4) Jesus existed as a spirit being, in heaven - the only begotten son of God (aka the Word), before coming to earth. (John 1:1-5, 14-18; John 3:16; John 8:23; John 17) So Jesus was relating, not only what is written in scripture, but what he himself...

    A dialogue about Prophecy & doctrines between the WTS/JW & Seventh-day Adventist

    Now, consider the greater context of the whole of scripture, for Christ Jesus can be said to fulfill both meanings, in that not only is: [1] Jesus is the “firstborn”, being the preeminent one: Romans 9:5 KJB - Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over...
  11. coconut theology

    Christians, change my mind: the more I think of substitutionary atonement, the less it makes sense.

    The wages of sin is death. Jesus died. The price was paid. The only way Jesus could live again, were if He could resurrect Himself. The only reason that people who die in their sins (in the 2nd death to come) cannot come back, is they have no life in themselves to be resurrected, otherwise...

    Purpose of Communion

    Thank you for your post Emma, It is important in any interfaith discussion to be clear about concepts. The concept of communion on one level is not hard to understand, especially for one who has grown up within the traditions of the Christian Church. I have taken communion many times but no...

    Does the Bible mention Islam?

    On another note, I think its important to note Paul used many phrases where He equates the Body of Christ with the Church. Members of the Body of Christ are joined to Christ in salvation (Ephesians 4:15-16) Members of the Body of Christ follow Christ as their Head (Ephesians 1:22-23) Members...

    Did Paul champion the Cause of Christ or corrupt it?

    Everything has context. My purpose was to emphasise with particular references to Paul the true meaning of the resurrection: Jesus came from heaven: John 3:13, John 6:38, John 6:41-2 The risen body of Christ is the Church: Roman 12:5 'one body in Christ' 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 'baptised into...

    Did Paul champion the Cause of Christ or corrupt it?

    What you posted on the other thread about the Body of Christ is all from Paul see below). The Christian Church is called the Body of Christ but it has nothing to do with the actual teachings of Jesus. It is all about salvation as a free gift. This is attractive to Christians who want a free...

    A rare occurence from God

    Now it is occurring to me what the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses is doing to people is they are making them like children. And, the Bible is saying that a person must become like a child to get the Kingdom of God. Though, I think Matthew 18:3 means hearts, not minds. It is written...

    Resurrection of Christ - What's the evidence for and against a literal resurrection

    Unfortunately, they'd have to be idiots to write about how the resurrected Jesus appeared to the disciples when the disciples and all the other believers are the resurrected body of Christ. Then after they wrote the gospels, the idiot followers forgot they were the resurrected Christ and...

    Resurrection of Christ - What's the evidence for and against a literal resurrection

    One third of the world's population considering themselves Christian is ample evidence of the body of the Christ that rose from the dead. Scripture confirms it: 1) Members of the Body of Christ are joined to Christ in salvation (Ephesians 4:15-16). 2) Members of the Body of Christ follow...

    How does one get into the New Testament church?

    Scuba Pete says, "News Flash: Being in the 'right' church doesn't save anyone! After all, was the church crucified for me? No. Go read I Cor 1". The answer to this question is, yes he died for the church, the church is his body which was nailed to the cross, the body is where the saved go to...
